Numerical study of the magnetorotational instability in weakly magnetised accretion disks: Resolution dependence of the Shakura-Sunyaev alpha
P. J. Kapyla, M. J. Korpi
In this letter, we present numerical calculations made to investigate the possible resolution dependence of the Shakura & Sunyaev (1973) viscosity parameter alpha from local magnet…
